6.1% tax drop? Wonder if we will see a msrp reduction.

If you remember it took forever before they adjusted prices for the then stronger CAD $ years ago...

Fudge.. I had almost forgotten. We also have high taxes, high taxes, some communists and huge potholes.. as well as the aforementioned earthquakes and stealership antics. but otherwise.. yep, pretty awesome.
Ok, ooof... just remembered about the sharks.. I effin hate those, almost enough to make me move to the Dakotas, or Saskatchewan.. they don't have stealership antics do they?.. I mean, how could they?.. for sure no sharks though.
Anyway, this place sucks.

Or the earthquakes!... don't forget those. So stealership antics and earthquakes, otherwise, quasi-paradise.

It's the guy who doesn't have a lot.. who really wants the car, gets an allocation, but only if he pays 50k over.
These cars are like drugs and super hot women - easy to fall in love and give everything to get them.. and realize that it wasn't the right thing to do in the end.

What's the real story on PTS right now. I hear various things. People in SoCal seem to be able to go to the Porsche Experience center and spec PTS when none of the dealers I know in NorCal can get PTS yet? I've got an allocation for a manual and would love Mexi Blue to match my LT, but it seems like its not happening.

RS (paid $10k over for it). No service as they are out of state. Get along great with GM and built a good relationship. MSRP. Only reason buying this one is for .2RS allocation (at MSRP and second on his list) and will flip this .2GT3 back to him. However, don't get me wrong I'll enjoy it to the fullest. Southeast.

Fingers crossed for you.
I look at it this way, if I sold them on my own, I lose my place on allocation (even if I made some money on them). For me as long as I buy MSRP moving forward and get allocations, I'm happy to flip them back to them so make some money on backend. It's much easier for me than chasing allocations from new dealers.
Also with .2RS being my golden goose, I'm happy as I have a feeling that one could be $80k+ over. No thanks.
CA dealers (as a whole) are on crack...but if people pay they will continue to gladly take money.

Most of the CA dealers are stealers...some bigger than others obviously but there are good dealership out here like CJ's dealership. Too bad he can't buy the remaining CA dealerships.
